Hi Masha,

Welcome to Geneva and Glocals, the classifieds section might have something in terms of job hunting and the things to do area will probably cover the finding new friends part.

Sorry you're arriving when the summer seems to have gone on vacation as well.

These guys and gals are a good lot, so don't hesitate to ask questions.  There will always be somebody to answer and give you tips about living and working in Geneva.

Dear Masha, I know your message was posted a while ago but in case you are still on Glocals I thought I would drop you a line. I am considering adopting a greyhound and am looking into how that would work in a city like Geneva with apartment living and working full time. May I ask if you stayed in Geneva with your dog?
